Gifts From Bison

By Lynn Quam

Animal: Bison, Material: Purple Marble
This offering is sold.

The gifts from Bison are honored through dance, song and prayer by many Indigenous cultures. For the A:Shiwi (The People) a Buffalo Katsina comes with a Buffalo Maiden during ceremonial dances. Bison remind us to be thankful and Lynn Quam's smoothly sculpted purple marble bovine can be a pleasing visual queue to practice gratitude. Powerful eyes and horns are from turquoise. The purple and violet colors in some marble specimens are a result of other minerals that become integrated into the limestone during metamorphic processes. About 3 1/2" long, 1 1/8" wide and 2" tall.
